Market Analysis
Understanding true market potential is the
foundation of every profitable, growing, and
sustainable business. It is the basis of every
successful strategy. Our market potential analyses
may encompass the following:
• Domestic and International Market Potential
• Prioritization of Future Growth Opportunities
• Competitive Landscape and Relative Market
Share
• Market Segment Specific Customer Needs
and Requirements
• Comprehensive Risk Analysis Overlay
Consideration of these factors allows our clients
to better assess their true market potential,
related risks, and key opportunities. This results
in more profitable decision-making through
focusing investments and resources in highly
attractive markets.
Despite the importance of understanding global
market potential, in-depth research at the
company level can be tedious and highly time-
consuming. Our team members have market
analysis experience on both domestic and
international levels, in addition to an extensive
proprietary database of market information.
Our Approach
AMark evaluates true market potential through
two separate and distinct approaches:
• A top-down analysis involves calculating
the total market size and estimating your
share of that market. This provides a high-
level picture of market potential by major
geographic regions and industries.
• A bottom-up, application driven analysis
involves estimating the sales required to
fully saturate the market. This may include
determining where products are typically
sold, identifying primary demand drivers,
analysis of key competitors, and estimating
the total number of potential customers. A
bottom-up analysis often serves to confirm
the results of a top-down analysis, and is one
of our core differentiators in this service area.
RESEARCH
According to a Harvard Business Review study
of companies within more than 30 different
markets, a well-defined sales and marketing
strategy correlated directly with higher
market share.

5. Why AMark?

The Drivven®
Strategy Model
Why Drivven®? When it comes to the
development of a comprehensive strategic plan,
the document is only as good as the action plan
behind it. Our holistic approach is twofold, in
that we focus not only on the development of
a compelling strategy but also on disciplined
execution.
The strategic planning process should be:
• Inclusive: carefully consider who should be
involved in the planning process, and balance
broad participation with ability to reach
agreement.
• Collaborative: allow everyone participating
in the process to provide input and shape your
strategy.
• Critically Aware: face the brutal facts,
be honest with yourself, and look at the
organization from an “outsider” perspective.
• Data Drivven: benchmark your organization
based on facts, set aggressive, but realistic,
relative, and quantifiable targets, challenge the
“status quo”, and insist on excellence.
Successful implementation
requires:
• A comprehensive strategic document,
communicated consistently throughout the
organization
• Aligned strategic initiatives and targets
• A holistic performance management process
for accelerated execution
Our Approach
Create the foundation of your strategy:
• Develop your vision/mission and values
statement
• Identify your customers, market, potential,
trends, and barriers
• Understand your competition and how you
compare (benchmarking)
• Assess your own product and services
portfolio, value proposition, and innovation
pipeline
Strategy development steps include:
• Identification of key success drivers based on
business analysis
• Focusing your strategy on key opportunities
supported by your value proposition and
corresponding organizational strengths
• Identification of the critical business
processes necessary to deliver your strategic
value proposition
• Aligning the organization with these
processes and focusing your activities on
them

Extraorganizational Context
Operational
Performance
Management (OPM)
The success of a strategy depends upon the
organizational processes in place to support
disciplined execution. Through partnership with
the University of St. Gallen (Financial Times
ranked among the “Top 10 European Business
Schools”), AMark is able to provide innovative,
groundbreaking solutions to the most critical
operational performance challenges:
• Expectation to consistently outperform
market and competitors in order to meet
stakeholder expectations.
• Overwhelming amount of competing priorities
and lack of disciplined execution.
• Managing economic volatility and uncertainty.
• Lack of accountability, micromanagement and
disengaged management and/or workforce.
• Lack of organizational alignment, silos, and
internal focus resulting in missed market
opportunities.
Traditional command and control systems
fail to engage new generations joining the
workforce. Budgetary and performance
management methods do not address market
volatility in a rapidly changing environment.
Our Approach
• Set clear top down direction and high
ambition through outside-in view
• Align and motivate through highly interactive
target setting and planning process
• Achieve high adaptability through
empowerment in execution
• Increase accountability through relative
measurement and comprehensive
assessment
• Ensure high self-regulation through smart
alignment with compensation system and
context

OPTIMIZE
PERFORMANCE
The Performance Management Assessment
was an exceptionally engaging process and
did not intrude upon our daily business
operations. The time spent with our
management team proved to be some of the
most valuable information gathering on our
company culture and structure since I started
with Monarch in 2001. The recommendations
provided as a result of your Performance
Management Assessment are easy to
understand and actionable. And, knowing you
are there to help us with the implementation
sets the AMark Team apart from almost all
other consulting firms in the country!

10. TESTIMONIALS
Check-6 International
“AMark Consulting helped us with the development of a complete domestic
and international market potential analysis to support our global sales
and marketing strategy. Additionally, AMark was involved with the set-
up of our international organization, and the related financial reporting,
budgeting and international compensation. AMark has profound
international business expertise and provided us with very valuable and
practical guidance and support. Their consultants have the ability to create
clarity and sense out of very complicated issues. I can highly recommend
AMark to companies looking for results-oriented solutions to overcome
growth barriers.”
Clifford Power Systems
“Our company had grown to a point that it could no longer be managed
efficiently, and important aspects of our business did not have the focus
that they deserved. The results of the changes championed by AMark have
been dramatic and very positive to our organization.”
Luxa Enterprises
“Luxa Enterprises engaged AMark to assist with assessing the company’s
business strategy. Through their very collaborative approach, AMark
helped us to develop a more refined strategy, and also provided a great
depth of insight on sales and marketing initiatives. Their expertise and
knowledge proved to be invaluable in aiding us to steer our future goals in
a more precise direction. I would highly recommend AMark as consulting
partners to businesses seeking frank and honest feedback, and constructive
recommendations.”
Seed Technologies
“The AMark Consulting team worked with Seed Technologies to assist in
moving it out of its stagnated growth. At first, they provided valuable
insight from their financial and marketing analysis during the discovery
period. They later helped identify the problem areas of our operations that
were adversely affecting both our sales and growth. With their guidance,
we were able to slightly alter our processes resulting in a 65% increase in
annual revenue after the first year. I would recommend AMark Consulting
to any company seeking an opportunity to expand.”

11. Swagelok
“Swagelok engaged AMark for strategic planning and market
segmentation services. Martin Piplits has a gracious, but straightforward
and honest communication style which encouraged many thought
provoking conversations within my senior leadership team. We truly
enjoyed working with AMark, appreciate the valuable insight they
provided, and recommend them to any companies seeking real-world
business results.”
Monarch
“The Performance Management Assessment was an exceptionally engag-
ing process and did not intrude upon our daily business operations. The
time spent with our management team proved to be some of the most
valuable information gathering on our company culture and structure

PCES
“PCES has had a wonderful experience with AMark Consulting, a local
management consulting firm. We heavily vetted them before we engaged
them and found all past clients were extremely satisfied with the results
they brought to the table. The results they brought to PCES have been
seismic to say the least, and I mean that in the best possible context. I
truly believe any organization would benefit from at least sitting down
and talking with AMark to see if their services might be a match for your
company. I really believe it could be one of the best investments you will
ever make.”
Continental Disc Corporation
“AMark’s availability, timeliness, and value delivered were exceptional! We
were impressed with their market based approach and the deliverables
exceeded our expectations. AMark offers a cost effective and quality
product that rivals larger consulting firms. Highly recommended!!”
